Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for producing stretched polyethylene articles with a high tensile strength and a high modulus on the basis of a solid, particle-shaped, linear polyethylene whereby the particles are irradiated, the irradiated particles are transformed above their melting point into articles and the transformed articles are cooled to below their melting point.
  • the present invention now provides a process for producing polyethylene articles such as filaments, fibres, tapes having a higher modulus and a higher strength.
  • the invention therefore relates to a process for producing stretched polyethylene articles with a high strength and a high modulus on the basis of a solid, particle-shaped, linear polyethylene, whereby the particles are irradiated, the irradiated particles are transformed above their melting point into arti- des and the transformed articles are cooled to below the melting point, the process being characterized in that the polyethylene has an average molecular weight of at least 4 x 10 5 , in that the polyethylene has a lamellar structure, in that the polyethylene has a low degree of entanglement and in that the cooled article is subsequently stretched in a plurality of steps at a rising temperature between 90 and 155 ° C but below the melting point of the polyethylene article to be stretched.
  • a linear polyethylene having a weight-average molecular weight of at least 4 x 105, particularly of at least 5 x 105 and preferably of at least 8 x 105.
  • Linear polyethylene is understood to mean in this connection polyethylene capable of containing minor amounts, preferably 5 moles % at most, of one or more other alkenes copolymerized therewith, such as propylene, butylene, pentene, hexene, 4-methylpentene, octene, etc., with at least 100 unbranched carbon atoms and preferably at least 300 unbranched carbon atoms between carbon atoms provided with side chains with more than 1 C-atoms.
  • alkenes copolymerized therewith such as propylene, butylene, pentene, hexene, 4-methylpentene, octene, etc.
  • the polyethylene may contain minor amounts, preferably 25 % (wt) at most, of one or more other polymers, particularly an alkene-1-polymer, such as polypropylene, polybutylene or a copolymer of propylene with a minor amount of ethylene.
  • an alkene-1-polymer such as polypropylene, polybutylene or a copolymer of propylene with a minor amount of ethylene.
  • the polyethylene must further have a lamellar structure and a low degree of entanglement ('disentanglement').
  • a polyethylene can be obtained in various ways known per se, for instance by crystallization from dilute polyethylene solutions, by spinning dilute solutions followed by cutting of the filaments, by extruding dilute solutions and granulating the extrudate.
  • Another possibility is polymerization (in suspension) under such conditions that immediately disentangled and lamellar polyethylene is formed, see for instance 'Ziegler-Natta Catalysts and Polymerizations', by Boor, J. 1979, Academic Press Inc., page 202.
  • the polyethylene is subjected to irradiation according to the invention in a solid form, for instance as powder or granulate.
  • the source of radiation applied may in the first place be an electron beam donor, but in principle a gamma ray source can also be used.
  • a survey of the customary radiation sources and radiation methods is given in Rubber Chemistry and Technology 55 (1982), pages 575-668.
  • the chosen dosage is generally between 1-20 MRAD, particularly 1-10 MRAD, preferably 2-6 MRAD.
  • the transformation of the irradiated polyethylene into an article can be done in various ways, for instance by spinning via a spinning head with a round or slit-shaped die, or by extrusion via an extruder usually with a profile head.
  • the chosen temperature must be higher than the melting temperature of the polyethylene, generally higher than 135 ° C.
  • this chosen temperature is lower than 155 ° C.
  • plasticizers generally to a maximum of 100 % (wt), and preferably 5-40 % (wt), calculated on the polyethylene.
  • plasticizer various agents may be used, inter alia aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as paraffins or paraffinic waxes, aromatic hydrocarbons, such as xylene, or hydroaromatic hydrocarbons, such as decalin or tetralin. Preference is given to using relatively volatile plasticizers, such as decalin.
  • the chosen transformation temperature is above the melting point of the mixture, but of course below the decomposition temperature of the polyethylene.
  • the article obtained in the transformation is subsequently cooled to below the melting temperature, for instance to 60-120 ° C, and successively stretched.
  • the stretching is done at elevated temperature, generally above 75 ° C, and particularly above 90 ° C.
  • the stretching takes place in a plurality of steps at rising temperature, but below the melting point of the polyethylene article to be stretched, which melting point increases to a maximum of about 155 ° C while the molecular orientation increases, so while the degree of stretching increases.
  • Stretching takes place in a plurality of steps, the temperature in the first step being between 90 and 125 ° C and in the final step between 140 and 155 ° C.
  • any residual plasticizer can be removed as known in the art, for instance by extraction.
  • the products according to the invention are suitable for many applications.
  • Filaments and tapes can be used, for instance, as reinforcement in many articles that are known to be reinforced with fibres or filaments, and for all uses in which a low weight combined with a high strength is desirable, such as for instance rope, nets, filter cloths, fabrics, magnetic tapes.
  • the films according to the invention are suitable for many applications. They can be cut into strong ribbons, bands, tapes. They can be used as reinforcement in many materials that are known to be reinforced with films or tapes and for all applications in which a low weight combined with a high strength is desirable, such as for instance audiovisual or magnetic tapes, tapes for medical uses, pakcaging film, protective sheeting, substrates for adhesives, insulating films in condensers, etc.
  • the powder thus obtained was irradiated under a vacuum using an electron accelerator of the HVE type with a voltage of 3 MV, the total dosage being about 5 MRAD, subsequently pressed at about 150 ° C through a die with a width of 10 mm and a thickness of 2 mm to form a tapeshaped article.
  • the tape was cooled to about 120°C and successively stretched in three steps at 120 ° C, 140 ° C and 150 ° C with a total draw ratio of respectively 15, 20 and 30.
  • the resulting tape had a modulus of about 60 GPa and a strength of about 1.8 GPa.
